Book description
Faith Hunter's Blood Trade plunges listeners into the shadow-soaked streets of Natchez, where the air hums with tension and every alley holds a threat. Khristine Hvam's narration wraps around the story like a second skin-raw, visceral, and utterly compelling. Her voice gives Jane Yellowrock a grit that feels lived-in, not performed, making each shift, each fight, each heartbeat pulse with authenticity.
Jane's reputation as a vampire hunter precedes her, but this job is different. The rogues here aren't just bloodthirsty-they're something new, something evolved. Hunter builds the dread slowly, layering in the kind of supernatural detail that makes your spine prickle: the scent of decay, the whisper of claws on brick, the unsettling silence before the strike. Hvam delivers every nuance with precision, switching between Jane's steely resolve and her vulnerable protectiveness over the sick child in her care.
The world-building is rich without being overwrought. You don't just hear about the South's Gothic underbelly-you feel it. The humid Mississippi night, the weight of old violence, the way the city seems to hold its breath when the sun goes down. Hvam's pacing mirrors the story's rhythm: fast and brutal during the action, quiet and tense in the moments between.
What sets this audiobook apart is how deeply it connects you to Jane's Cherokee heritage. Her connection to the land, her respect for the old ways, and the weight of her skinwalker abilities aren't just plot points-they're woven into the narrative with reverence and power. Hvam's delivery honors that depth, never rushing through the quieter spiritual moments that give the story its soul.
Blood Trade isn't just a vampire hunt-it's a fight for survival, identity, and justice. And with Hvam guiding the way, it's an experience you won't soon forget.
